I’m not sure if this is something you guys can or want to help with. The bathroom at my current job is completely free of graffiti except for the words “itik nuliak” written very clearly in Sharpie. It’s not a language local to where I live and putting it in Google translate doesn’t do anything. It’s been bothering me.

      Yeah but I’d like to correct their “anus intercourse” to whatever the Inuit for but sex actually is. it’d freak my colleague out.

      You know like grading a paper.

        Plus, now I want to write butt sex in Inuit everywhere, so it’d be better to get it right

            That surprises me. They’re one of these people who talk extensively about all the languages they want to learn without actually doing anything about it. Mind you, I suppose he wasn’t exactly translating shakespeare.

            Based on your other description of Kurt and my username… probably

            If there’s no correcting to be done, may I suggest responding to use a condom in Inuit?

              And do you live in northern Norway? Also how do I say that in Inuit?
